M1 carbine paratrooper 

"Objective Burma"" one of the best WW2 films out there, Arole Flynn used one of these...The posters showed him with a Tompson but he uses the paratrooper in the movie. They fight the Chinese n Japanese behind enemy lines and get swallowed by the jungle.

It was fortunate that your Iver Johnson carbine fit into that M1A1 stock. If it was a Universal it wouldn't have fit!

Iver Johnson bought Universal some years ago. They were not USGI compatible. Found out the hard way

beauty at its best.

There about 400 to 500 now. Auto ordinance is making new m1 carbines and there around 700. You can find usgi models for around 800 in decent condition

what do those Johnson's run these days

Can you explain what mods have you done to the stock to allow the carbine to fit? Im having some issue installing mine but Im not sure where to sand.. Thanks!

That carbine would be could the m1a1
